When starting the setup for windows 7 you only get the option to fresh install on any drive, or just upgrading your current running os (in this case the cracked 32-bit version.) So instead of formatting my ssd with my data and once again reinstall windows on it from the cracked windows on my backup drive, i just wish to repair it from here. Now, however, my ssd is completly full of data that i dont wish to loose. Thats how i managed to install windows at all when i built my pc. Then it was pretty simple to just start up the windows setup program from the dvd and install a fresh edition of the correct 64-bit edition of windows on my ssd, and then formating my backup drive again to remove the cracked version of windows. Then from that edition of windows, i could boot up successfully, allowing me to browse any file from the windows explorer on my install dvd. Having another cd with a cracked edition of windows 7 32 bit edition, i formated my backup-drive and installed the 32-bit windows 7 on that drive. I have three disks in my PC, one ssd for OS, one 2tb hard drive for storage and one old hard drive for backup from my old pc. I also had this issue when i first built my system, and it took me about a week to fix. Should i downgrade my bios to the pre-update, and how do i do that properly?Īnd why is this happening? I seem to be one of the many few that get this problem.īecause my Windows 7 install cd for some reason isent bootable from the bios, i cant perform neither a clean install or a repair install. So i have no idea of what to do from here. I am aware of that my motherboard has some kind of bios restore, and even has e dedicated button at the I/opanel, but thats as far as i know. I used the EzUpdate software, and the installation dident give any errors or anything, so the update was correctly installed, But i still get this issue? All i get when booting up is BOOTMGR is missing. When googeling i found that you should try to boot up with only your os hard drive and the os dvd/usb, and from there try to repair/reinstall windows and then hopefully fix the issue. I have access to bios, but thats just as far as it goes.

When trying to boot, i get the message saying BOOTMGR is missing, press ctrl+alt+del to restart. So after updating my bios from 0504 to 1106 my pc just wont boot up.

Bootmgr is missing
